Replying to: wrajinder (Nov 21, 2007 1:56 pm) Presently I have a cooperative dealer in the US. I can get a Pre Sept Highlander LTD, but my wife doesn't like the colour ( I know...), so depending on how you make out this weekend she will either get a Highlander in a colour she likes or not. I have sent an email to TC looking for 100% clarification regarding the post Sept Highlander LTd but have got nothing back so far (the way I interpret the post TC list, that model should be okay without a letter from Toyota, but...). Good luck wrajinder |

I imported a BMW M3 from the States on November. I did all the necessary research and consulted RIV prior to importing. Eveyting worked went smoothly until I got the car back to Canada. I had a recall clearance letter from an authorized BMW delaer in the US but RIV did not accept this on account of recent policy changes. I then called BMW of Canada who referred me to a local dealer that I visted on Novmeber 5. I completed the forms and paid my $500 fee. This is still notm ggod enough. I've now waited 2.5 weeks and BMW has still not provided the recall clearance letter. They said 15-20 days but they have not honored that timeframe. I am totally frustrated. What the h^&$ is going on at RIV and TC? The information changes from day-to-day and person-to-person. Has anyone experienced this with RIV and BMW?

I'm a Canadian snowbird in Florida. I would like to buy a used, 2006 Acura TL and bring it back to Canada. After talking with several dealers, it seems that I would have to pay Florida sales tax (6%), and license fees etc. When I asked if I could drive the car to Canada, they assured me that I could not. It would have to be delivered. Has anyone encountered similar problems in this state? Does anyone know if there are states that waive the sales tax, etc?
